Icon2 00 si power steering problem?

hey guys, so today on my way to work, i noticed a screeching sound whenever i turned right. I thought it was the brakes because i was slowing down also. So later that day I changed my brake pads(had to do it anyway) and it went away for a couple of days. But today the noise came back. the sound is the same sound when your brake pads are down to the metal and your braking. I hate that noise and its starting to annoy me. my only guess is that its the power steering. could it be something else?

im not too sure myself. I was only assuming it was the power steering, but im open to hear suggestions, I cant personally look at it right now cuz its at my friends house. I cant get my car up my driveway right now, its too steep. but im hoping to find out soon so i can check it out tomorrow

UPDATE:
the problem has moved from just right turns to any speed 25mph down.

Check for bent wheel splash guards that may be rubbing on the brake rotor.
